(orcid)0000-0002-5849-4336 When government’s economic ideology shapes income redistribution. Empirical evidence from the OECD 2024 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted This paper studies the relationship between Government´s economic ideology and income redistribution, using a panel of OECD countries spanning the years 2004–2020. Our results point to the existence of a partisan effect, showing that taxes and transfer policies implemented by parties on the left reduce income inequality more than those of parties on the right. Other political and electoral factors (the proximity of the elections, the number of years for which the chief executive has been in office, and the presence of coalitional and minority governments) do not seem to be as relevant. We also analyze the role that the Great Recession and the globalization process have played in the relationship between Government´s economic ideology and income redistribution, finding that they have significantly altered it. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S07-23R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2019-108348RA-I00 info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2020-114354RA-I00 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.es 2.4 2024 ECONOMICS 161 / 620 = 0.26 2024 Q2 T1 1.294 2024 Economics, Econometrics and Finance (miscellaneous) 2024 Q1 Sociology and Political Science 2024 Q1 Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management 2024 Q1 5.4 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Bellido, Héctor Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1065-1304 Olmos, Lorena Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-1438-4581 4000 415 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
